There's a lot more to stormtroopers than meets the eye. Sure, they can be bumbling idiots with terrible aim, mere cannon fodder easily dispatched by Jedi heroes. But they can also be heroes themselves, as Finn proved after he deserted The First Order in The Force Awakens.
Yet, as Andor reminded us just recently, the faceless helmets that stormtroopers wear can also conceal something much darker, a willingness to partake anonymously in evil atrocities such as the Ghorman Massacre. A new short in the third season of Star Wars: Visions season 3 dares to dive deeper still, pulling us directly into the mind of a stormtrooper who's just moments away from death. And not just any stormtrooper, but one working aboard the Death Star as it explodes towards the end of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.
